I'm learnin' to fly,
But I ain't got wings.
Comin' down
Is the hardest thing.

Learning to Fly, written with Jeff LynneTom Petty
Informer: My friend, I am asking you for wings, not for words.
Pisthetaerus: It's just my words that gives you wings.
Informer: And how can you give a man wings with your words?
Pisthetaerus: They all start this way. [...]
Informer: So that words give wings?
Pisthetaerus: Undoubtedly; words give wings to the mind and make a man soar to heaven. Thus I hope that my wise words will give you wings to fly to some less degrading trade.
(tr. O'Neill 1938, Perseus)Aristophanes
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase; you've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days.
Bob Dylan
We need not be afraid to touch, to feel, to show emotion. The easiest thing in the world is to be what you are, what you feel. The hardest thing to be is what other people want you to be. Don’t let them put you in that position.
Leo Buscaglia
Proper eating is the hardest thing in life.
